Gibbons Map & Sidewalk Details

Before & After shows broken sidewalk, curb, uneven surface and the repaired sidewalk with new curb and pedestrian access.

A critical consideration of this project are the sidewalk and curb conditions at each Liquidambar tree site. Decades of tree and root growth have resulted in uneven sidewalks, broken curbs, and street ponding. Any project scope selected by the City, with community input, will include sidewalk and curb repairs to create a safer and more accessible pedestrian experience.

Please review the maps below (one interactive, others are PDFs for each street block) and summary table to build understanding of current sidewalk and curb conditions along Gibbons Drive.
